Like an "elevator speech," a book-signing poster is supposed to both attract and give information. The greatest help I've found in poster creation is stickers/labels that are a full page in size. I print on the thing and just adhere it to my poster board.
So my poster for tomorrow's signing at Mardel's has a page on "seeing God's love," with short teaser statements about each of the four books I'll be presenting. Then each book has its own page, with the cover (scanned and copied) and a longer summary statement on the book as a whole as well as my story.
The covers make it colorful, and I think the words can be seen and read easily. The idea is that people see the poster, are intrigued, and come within range of the table. Then we can talk, and laugh, and share a bit. It's a fun way to connect with people, even if I don't sell a single copy.
Now, if I had to make a poster about my life in Christ, making Him sound so attractive people were drawn to talk to me ... come to think of it, my life should be a poster for Him! Now, there's a thought!
